So, I've recently revived my gaming streak, and for as long as I've gamed, I've always enjoyed interacting with others. As such, I'm curious what games SN folks play. I've been strongly tempted to setup a Minecraft server for SoylentNews, but I don't really want to put in the effort if no one else is interested in playing. So, here's my simple question for the community; what games do you play, and would you want to play on an SN hosted server?
I'm tempted to make any gaming-related things be a subscriber perk, as an attempt to both increase subscriber benefits, and make such a target harder to grief. Not sure if it's a great idea, so I'd love to get feedback below.

Go is the only game worth playing. How can it be otherwise?

There used to be an internet GO server a decade or two ago, using the internet GO protocol.

Currently kgs [gokgs.com]is still popular.
However if SN are to run a server then NNGS [xmp.net] might be worth looking into (also, the protocol igs and nngs use is simple and telnet-friendly and quite easy to implement)
